Extractions: Those students who meet minimum requirements for admission to the Graduate Division, but do not meet departmental requirements, may be admitted to conditionally classified standing, on the approval of the department graduate committee. In addition to the requirements set forth in the Academic Requirements section of this catalog, which include satisfactory completion of the Graduate English Writing Requirement, the student must possess an adequate background in meteorology. Competence in the general areas covered by Metr 100W, 121A, 124, and 171A, must be demonstrated to the Department Graduate Committee prior to admission to candidacy. This can be done by: satisfactory completion of these courses (or their equivalent) with a minimum grade of "B"; or passage of a comprehensive written examination. Students should consult with the graduate advisor concerning these alternatives. Courses taken to meet the requirements for admission to candidacy will not be counted as part of the MS program. All students must demonstrate competency in written English.

http://www.usna.edu/Oceanography/major.html

Extractions: An interdisciplinary science major, oceanography involves the study of meteorology, geophysics, physics, chemistry, biology and geology as they relate to the ocean environment. Basic courses in these areas are prerequisites for more advanced oceanography and meteorology courses , such as sound propagation in the ocean, the study of waves and tides, and the use of satellites in oceanography. Other courses include biological oceanography, which offers a glimpse of the production of marine plants and animals; synoptic meteorology, which involves hands-on weather forecasting experience using the latest tools available; and advanced mathematics, which are necessary to describe the complex behavior of fluid environments. Our civilian and military faculty members have backgrounds in disciplines ranging from dynamic meteorology to marine biology, geology and oceanography. Their research is at the forefront of modern science, applying the most recent technological advances in satellites and computational technology. Our researchers' interests cover topics as diverse as mathematical modeling of the Chesapeake Bay, remotely-sensed ocean color, fish migration, and explosive development of storms. Midshipmen may participate in research efforts by developing independent research projects under the guidance of faculty members as a semester course or as a one-year Trident Scholar effort. Our military faculty bring fleet experiences into the classroom and provide midshipmen with real world examples of how meteorology and oceanography affect different warfare specialties.
ITALY
Some Regional Meteorological Services are organizing meteorology coursesfor their staff, sometimes allowing nonmember students.

Extractions: ITALY PANORAMA OF METEOROLOGICAL EDUCATION SECONDARY EDUCATION Both nautical and aeronautical schools have meteorology in their courses. As an example courses for merchant navy officers include general meteorology, dynamics and thermodynamics of the atmosphere, meteorological observations, international organization of meteorological activities and meteorological messages. The Rome University organizes systematic seminars for teachers in secondary schools in which atmospheric sciences and meteorology in particular, are comprised. UNIVERSITIES We offer the example of the university of Rome "La Sapienza". Meteorology is included in the framework of the university degree in Physics, branch of Terrestrial an Environmental Physics (TEP). This type of education requires five years (four years devoted to courses and examinations and one year for the preparation of the final thesis). The student who, at the beginning of the fourth year, chooses the branch TEP may select either the sub-branch "fluid earth" or the "solid earth" one. Within the fluid earth sub-branch, Meteorology as well as other matters in the field, like Physics of the Atmosphere, Atmospheric Chemistry, Remote Sensing, etc, are included. The student is guided to select a coherent group of four annual courses among the mentioned matters (an annual course may be substituted by two six-month courses) by his university "tutor". SPECIALIZED EDUCATION OUTSIDE UNIVERSITIES Within the Italien Meteorological Service (a military Agency), yearly courses of the following type are available:

It is the flagship meteorology department in the southeastern United States, offering degrees from the bachelor of science (BS) through the doctor of philosophy (PhD). The program at The Florida State University is considered to be one of the top five comprehensive meteorology programs in the nation. Members of the Department of Meteorology enjoy the benefits of advanced scientific equipment and a cooperative research environment with the departments of Mathematics and Oceanography, the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Institute (GFDI), and the School of Computational Science and Information Technology (CSIT). Scientific computations are handled on equipment ranging from PCs and Macintosh computers to networks of scientific workstations and a departmental supercomputer. A high speed network connects the department to other supercomputer centers and research laboratories via a very fast campus backbone and excellent Internet connectivity to the outside world. Several of the faculty are also actively involved in National Weather Service collaboration as Fellows of the NOAA Cooperative Institute for Tropical Meteorology.

Meteorology seeks to understand the behavior and predictability of the Earth's atmosphere and requires good foundations in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and computer science. Required undergraduate meteorology courses are combined with courses in other disciplines to develop an academic background that is appropriate for a variety of employment opportunities. Graduate students receive advanced training in meteorology and usually perform research under the direction of a faculty adviser in specialty fields that include climate modeling, cloud physics, dynamic meteorology, numerical weather prediction, large-scale and mesoscale modeling, remote sensing, radiative transfer, and synoptic meteorology.

Whether a course meets or does not meet these criteria is ultimately determined by a School of Computer Science advisor. The course cannot be required in the Computer Science curriculum. The course cannot be a prerequisite for a course that is required in the Computer Science curriculum. The course material cannot duplicate any course for which credit is given in the degree program. The course must be listed in the University Catalog. Any general education course that meets the other criteria is allowed. Courses whose sole purpose is the attainment of a skill will not be allowed. Examples of classes which would not be allowed are: ART 2413 Painting I, MUNM 1022 Beginning Instrument/Voice Class I, BUS 4503 Real Estate Appraising, and HSS 1341 Beginning Bowling.
